Houston, TX- Congressman Gene Green (D-Texas), on Saturday, August 12, 2006 will host his 11th Annual Immunization Day. The day’s event, which will be held at three different elementary schools in the 29th Congressional District, will give parents an opportunity to come and speak with Congressman Green about preventive health initiatives. Free immunization will be administered at these meetings, just in time for school.
“Immunizations are one of the most important disease prevention steps we can take to protect our children,” said Congressman Green. “I hope that people will take advantage of our Immunization Day. It’s a benefit for our children and our community.”
Every year three elementary schools are selected to host the event. For the last several years three healthcare groups have helped in making Immunization Day a success: The Harris County Public Health and Environmental Services, Humble Clinic; The Almatha Clark Taylor School Based Clinic in Galena Park ISD; and the Rusk School Health Promotions Project Clinic in HISD.
Congressman Green will hold a press conference at Crespo Elementary at 10:30AM.
